What are Messenger ChatBots?

ChatBots are the automation of messages & triggers that allow our clients, and potential clients, to have interactive and engaging conversations with us 24 hours a day. Through the use of bots, we are able to run lead generation campaigns or provide enhanced customer service, or even enable purchases all right from within the Messenger App.

Messenger Marketing is simply the act of marketing to your customers using a messaging app such as Facebook Messenger.
